Metastasis founder cells activate immunosuppression early in human melanoma metastatic colonization
2024-05-11
Abstract excerpt
The earliest steps of lethal metastasis in patients are incompletely understood. To dissect them, we prospectively searched for the earliest detectable disseminated cancer cells (DCC) in sentinel lymph node biopsies of 492 stage I-III patients. By visually-controlled, micromanipulator-assisted isolation and single cell transcriptome analysis of these extremely rare DCC, we identified MCSP + melanoma cells as stro...
